I just don't believe any government, especially a businessman like Donald Trump, would choose to basically destroy the economy and our way of life, based on a death rate of 1%, or even 2%. All that does is basically double or triple the normal amount of annual deaths in this country and while that would be unpleasant, you would muddle through it hoping science and doctors can come up with a treatment and vaccine within a year or two. You don't destroy the world and our way of life over it.

For Donald Trump and other governments to do so, they have to have been convinced it is much worse than that, a much higher death rate than we are currently being told.
Suddenly the light bulb goes off as you changed your earlier stance from a few days ago.
